Microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) have emerged as persistent environmental pollutants, posing significant ecological human health risks. Their widespread presence in aquatic, terrestrial, atmospheric ecosystems necessitates effective removal strategies. Traditional methods, including filtration, coagulation, sedimentation, demonstrated efficacy for larger MPs but struggle with nanoscale plastics. Advanced techniques, such adsorption, membrane photocatalysis, electrochemical shown promising results, yet challenges remain scalability, cost-effectiveness, impact. Emerging approaches, functionalized magnetic nanoparticles, AI-driven detection, laser-based remediation, present innovative solutions tackling MP NP contamination. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of current emerging strategies, evaluating their efficiency, limitations, future prospects. By identifying key research gaps, this study aims to guide advancements sustainable scalable microplastic technologies, essential mitigating implications.

Introduction The transition to a circular economy is key pillar of European sustainable development. However, in the current context, shaped by multiple crises and geopolitical conflicts, efficiency resilience this are particular concern. policymakers national authorities must adapt their approaches mitigate risks posed external factors while ensuring progress towards sustainability goals. This study analyzes from 2010 2022, assessing economic environmental variables. Methods employs an econometric approach using panel data 27 EU Member States. A linear regression model with fixed effects applied alongside spectral analysis descriptive statistics examine relationships between private investment, gross value added, municipal waste recycling rates, recyclable material flows, greenhouse gas emissions. These methods allow for in-depth evaluation influencing transition. Results Findings indicate that investment integration materials significantly enhance economy. varies across States due regional disparities, inadequate infrastructure, inefficient management. High-emission countries face greater challenges achieving targets, demonstrating need tailored resilient policy measures. Discussion results highlight necessity public policies promote attractiveness sectors, reduce improve management infrastructure. Additionally, emphasizes importance coordinated region-specific accelerate By integrating seasonal analyses, research contributes literature offering nuanced understanding affecting progress. insights valuable supranational developing effective strategies at level.
